My name is Huang Tian, ​​what the hell is this "Heaven is dead" nonsense?

Chapter 114 A Prestige that Overwhelms the County, Its Name as Solid as a Mountain
"Sect Leader, that person is here! He's here!"

"They're less than ten miles away, heading straight for our sect!"

He will arrive at the mountain gate!

"..."

Inside the council hall, news kept coming in. Wu Jiamin, who was sitting at the head of the table, took a deep breath and looked at the several fourth-rank elders beside him. "He will arrive soon. Let's go outside the sect to greet him."

One of the elders was reluctant to go, shrinking back and saying, "What if, what if he comes here to wipe out the entire sect? If we all go to the sect to greet him, what if he wipes us all out? Should we leave one or two people in the sect?"

Wu Jiamin glanced at him and snapped, "If anyone's going to die, it'll be me, the sect leader, first! What are you panicking for?!"

Upon hearing this, the man immediately lowered his head in shame, and the other elders dared not speak. They all admired Wu Jiamin and felt that the new sect leader was indeed a responsible person!
In truth, Wu Jiamin was in a panic, cursing inwardly, 'My grand-uncle put me in the position of sect leader, made me apologize to Huang Tian, ​​and then ran away! What a shameless old bastard! Bah!'

Despite the criticism, the work still needs to be done.

He stood up from his chair and said, "Alright, all elders and deacons, come with me to greet them! Be respectful. If anyone utters any foul language during the greeting and it affects our apology, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Yes!"

In reality, even without him saying it, which elder or deacon would dare to have that guts? The sect's honor belongs to everyone, and lives belong to oneself...

Led by Wu Jiamin, the group left the hall and soon arrived at the entrance of the sect's residence.

Dozens of people stood together, their expressions strange and uneasy, but no one uttered a sound; they all held their breath.

Ta da~

The sound of horses' hooves echoed clearly on the main road in front of the mountain gate.

'He's here!'

Everyone tensed up instinctively, staring intently at Huang Tian as he rode up on horseback.

Hehe~

A gentle breeze greeted Huang Tian, ​​who, seeing so many people standing at the entrance of the Guiyuan Sect, reined in his horse and paused briefly.

Seeing that he hadn't started a massacre right away, Wu Jiamin breathed a sigh of relief, took two steps forward, bowed deeply, and loudly proclaimed:
"Master Huang's visit today is an honor for our sect. We, along with all the elders and deans, respectfully welcome you here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the dozens of people standing behind him knelt down.

Looking around, no one dared to raise their head; everyone was trembling with fear.

Wu Jiamin continued, "Our sect and Master Huang do have some disagreements. To express our apologies, we are offering you this gift. We hope you will understand."

Immediately, a deacon who was kneeling on the ground picked up a box from the ground and carefully placed it in front of Huang Tian.

Upon opening, there were two Precious Elephant Embryo Pills and seven kinds of precious medicines that were hundreds of years old.

Looking at the Guiyuan Sect members bowing and kneeling, Huang Tian glanced around and spoke his first question: "Where is Wu Xuefeng?"

In front of so many people from the Guiyuan Sect, to address the Supreme Elder by his given name would have been a serious offense if anyone else had dared to do so. However, the one who spoke was Huang Tian, ​​the one who destroyed the Feihong Sect and killed two third-rank Grandmasters!

No one dared to object; instead, they trembled with fear, wondering why he asked such a question. At the same time, they blamed Wu Xuefeng in their hearts. As the Supreme Elder of this sect, you actually "deserted in the face of battle," leaving everyone behind to face this god of death. It was truly unkind of you!

Wu Jiamin cursed his great-uncle under his breath again, forcing a smile. "The Supreme Elder... he's gone to visit friends. He might be deep in the mountains, or he might have gone to another county or prefecture. We have no idea where he is..."

"Oh, I went to visit a friend..."

Huang Tian seemed to be deep in thought. It seemed that this Wu Taishang really valued his life more and more as he got older, without caring about his reputation or gossip.

He smiled, tapped his foot, and the not-too-large box came into his hands. He tied it to the side of the horse and said, "I can't refuse your kind offer, so I'll accept the gift."

Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, the sound of their exhalations clearly audible, making them blush. But they immediately thought: So everyone is scared, then I won't be embarrassed anymore...

"but!"

One word made everyone's hearts leap into their throats.

Dozens of eyes were fixed on Huang Tian with tension. Wu Jiamin hurriedly spoke up: "Master Huang, please make any requests you may have. Our Guiyuan Sect will satisfy you without hesitation!"

"I don't need anything else from you. I just want to visit your sect's library," Huang Tian said.

Wu Jiamin replied repeatedly, "Yes! Yes!"

He thought Huang Tian was dissatisfied with the lack of apologetic gifts, but it turned out he just wanted to go into the library to read books.

For a major sect or power, the treasured books in the Scripture Pavilion and Book Pavilion are indeed the cornerstone of its establishment. However, they are different from elixirs and pills. If one person takes them, another cannot take them. Scriptures and martial arts techniques are things that everyone can read. They are not consumables. Letting Huang Tian go in will not cause any loss.

"Master Huang, please! Please!"

Wu Jiamin got up and led the way. Huang Tian walked forward unhurriedly. The dragon horse did not need to be led and followed behind him with great intelligence, holding its head high and striding confidently. A group of elders and deacons followed behind the dragon horse and poured into the sect.

The layout of Guiyuan Sect and Feihong Sect is similar. Upon entering, one is greeted by an enormous bluestone plaza, with a magnificent and continuous complex of buildings in the distance.

However, there was a difference between Huang Tian and Fei Hong Men. There were almost no disciples to be seen on the entire Qing Shi Square, but Huang Tian could feel many timid, curious, and worried gazes directed at him.

Clearly, the ordinary disciples of Guiyuan Sect knew he had arrived, and few dared to linger in front of him. Most hid in their houses, carefully observing the situation outside through the windows.

Wu Jiamin said, "Master Huang, our sect has already prepared a banquet in the reception hall..."

"No need, I'll go straight to the Scripture Pavilion," Huang Tian said decisively.

"Ah, ah, okay."

Wu Jiamin nodded repeatedly and looked at the dragon horse, "We can feed this horse for you."

Huang Tian waved his hand, and the dragon horse understood his meaning, leaving with a steward.

As for whether anyone will touch the treasure on the horse's back?

Ha, any movement will lead to the destruction of an entire clan!
In this situation, Wu Jiamin would be even more afraid than him of someone stealing the treasures on horseback.

Upon arriving at the Sutra Repository, there wasn't a single disciple inside. Come to think of it, with the sect facing an impending crisis, who would have the mind to choose martial arts techniques or read books?

Wu Jiamin led Huang Tian inside and said with a smile, "Master Huang, you can stay as long as you like. No one will come in to disturb you during this time."

He had already decided to order all disciples to temporarily stay away from the Scripture Pavilion. His reasons were twofold: first, to provide Huang Tian with an extremely quiet environment for reading; and second, to prevent the disciples from accidentally offending Huang Tian and causing trouble for the sect.

Although based on this short period of contact, he felt that Huang Tian did not seem as irritable and easily angered as the rumors suggested, it was still better to be cautious.

Huang Tian nodded slightly.

Seeing that he was satisfied, Wu Jiamin was secretly pleased and said, "Then we will take our leave."

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and everyone followed him out of the library, leaving Huang Tian alone inside to "flip" through the books.

When everyone walked out of the library, they looked at each other, their faces showing a sense of relief.

Wu Jiamin strode briskly and gave the order, "From this day forward, no disciple of the sect is allowed to enter the Scripture Pavilion!"

He didn't say how long it would last, nor did he know how long Huang Tian would stay inside. But however long he stayed, that's how long it would last!
The order quickly spread throughout the Guiyuan Sect, and instead of causing dissatisfaction among the thousands of disciples, it made them breathe a sigh of relief.

My clan, at least, won't perish! It's good that it won't perish, it's good that it won't perish!

For a moment, the atmosphere within the Guiyuan Sect was even more joyful than during a festive celebration, with smiles on everyone's faces.

Several days passed like flowing water.

In the past few days, Guiyuan Sect has gradually returned to its normal state. Some disciples have begun to practice martial arts on the bluestone square, many servants are busy sweeping and cleaning with peace of mind, and the elders are cultivating as usual.

If Huang Tian hadn't still been in the Guiyuan Sect and the order forbidding anyone from entering the Scripture Pavilion hadn't been lifted, almost everyone in the sect would have forgotten about Huang Tian's existence.

However, whenever they passed by the library from time to time, or occasionally looked up in its direction, a strange feeling would always well up in their hearts.

"That's what a man should do!"

One man's power was enough to keep an entire sect from moving!
This is the real strong man!
"If one day I could be as majestic as Huang Tian, ​​even if I died the next day, it would be worth it!"

On the blue stone square, a blue-clad disciple, exhausted from martial arts practice, sat on the ground and sighed deeply.

"Haha, what ambition, what low potential!" joked the young man sitting next to him, carrying a long sword.

The disciple in blue rolled his eyes at him speechlessly, "My potential isn't high, and yours probably isn't much higher either."

"Just kidding, just kidding!" The young man with the longsword laughed, then looked up towards the direction of the Scripture Pavilion, as if he could see a majestic dragon there!

The dragon was only coiled in the pavilion, yet it made thousands of people from the sect bow their heads. If it were to emerge from the abyss, it would be earth-shattering and enough to make countless people fear and tremble!

“You’re right. If one day I could have his prestige, it would be worth dying for…” the young man with the longsword murmured.

Their eyes shone with longing, and their hearts were filled with anticipation.

Suddenly, a series of exclamations came from the direction of the Sutra Repository. The exclamations were like waves, coming from that side to this side. The two were very surprised and got up to look.

Then a tall, upright, and valiant young man with a powerful stride emerged from the library.

"That's... Huang Tian!!"

They exclaimed softly, both of them extremely excited.

Yes, it's excitement, not fear!
Or rather, excitement overwhelmed fear.

The disciples looked up at Huang Tian as if he were a star, and parted the path like a tide.

Upon hearing that Huang Tian had left the Sutra Repository, Wu Jiamin immediately rushed over, accompanied by several elders.

And Wu Xuefeng with his white beard and white eyebrows!
Indeed, after hearing that Huang Tian accepted the apology and did not go on a killing spree within the sect, Wu Xuefeng thought it over again and again, and finally rushed back to Guiyuan Sect.

Wu Xuefeng held a thick volume of documents in his hands, greeted him amicably, and said with a smile, "A few days ago, Brother Huang came to visit my clan. I happened to be visiting friends and was unable to entertain him personally. I am truly ashamed. I am presenting this gift to express my apologies. I hope Brother Huang will accept it."

Huang Tian glanced at it and saw the words "Masters' Breakthrough Experiences and Notes" written on the document.

This thing...

"Fellow Daoist Wu, you are very kind." Huang Tian took it.

Seeing that he accepted the gift, Wu Xuefeng felt a great weight lifted from his heart, and his smile widened. He said with a hearty laugh, "Brother Huang has been in my sect for many days, and this is the first time he has come out today. I would like to host a banquet and have a good time with you."

"No need, I've finished reading the book, it's time for me to leave."

Huang Tian shook his head and looked at the sect leader Wu Jiamin, "Send my Jiao Ma here."

Wu Jiamin was stunned. He's leaving already? That's too fast.

Did you finish reading all the books in the library in just a few days, or did you only select the top few martial arts manuals to read?
Thinking of the rumors about Huang Tian's comprehension, he swallowed hard.

'Could it be that he really has read and learned all the thousands of martial arts techniques of my sect?'

Wu Jiamin was filled with mixed emotions. He instructed a steward, "Go and bring Master Huang's dragon horse here."

"Yes!"

Soon, the majestic dragon horse was brought over, with the bundles and boxes still on its back, and everything inside was intact.

He leaped onto his horse, and Huang Tian calmly surveyed Wu Xuefeng and the others, uttering only two words.

"Farewell!"

Sensing something, the dragon horse neighed and leaped out of the crowd, rushing towards the outside of the Guiyuan Sect like an arrow.

Without pausing for a moment, it completely disappeared from everyone's sight within a few dozen breaths.

"This……"

Looking at the yellow sky that had already disappeared, everyone felt both at ease and empty.

The peace of mind comes from the departure of the Killer Star.

There's an emptiness inside, as if these past few days have all been a dream...

In a daze, someone suddenly let out a long sigh. The meaning of that sigh was hard to define, but everyone could feel the relief it conveyed.

Wu Jiamin and the others all smiled.

Only Wu Xuefeng stroked his beard and sighed, "Coming and going like a dragon, why hasn't such a person emerged from my Guiyuan Sect..."

Huang Tian was oblivious to Wu Xuefeng's sentiments. After leaving Guiyuan Sect, he didn't rush back to the county city but continued on to the remaining three major sects.

The entire trip went very smoothly.

Upon arriving at each sect, its leader and supreme elder would personally come out to greet them and offer gifts of apology.

Moreover, the apologies were remarkably consistent: two precious elephant embryo pills and seven rare medicines that were hundreds of years old.

It's obvious that they "learned" from the Guiyuan Sect.

Whatever Guiyuan Sect lost, they lost the same thing.

In this way, at least there won't be any mistakes.

It was painful for them to give up these precious elixirs, but no matter how much they regretted it, they had no choice but to hand them over to avoid incurring the wrath of that killer star, which would truly be the end for them.

After accepting the gift, Huang Tian went into the sect's library to read, seemingly without any concern about any ambush, which amazed everyone and made them admire his courage and confidence in his own strength.

After reading the book, he didn't linger and quickly went to the next faction.

Thus, the four major sects of Mercedes-Benz traveled thousands of miles, and with the time spent reading in the various sects' libraries, more than a month had passed.

In the past month or so, Huang Tian's fame has grown even more. All the major powers in Kunyun County have firmly remembered that young man who rode thousands of miles on horseback and moved about like a dragon in the clouds. He truly is...

His fame resounds throughout the prefecture, and his banners flutter in the breeze from all four regions!
